Please edit %AppData%\Roaming\megaglest\glestuser.ini and set - temporarily only -:
Code: [Select]
DebugMode=1
DebugLogFile=debug.log

Then reproduce the bug and send %AppData%\Roaming\megaglest\debug.log to contact [at] megaglest [dot] org.

Please also provide information on the hardware you tested this on: video card, available RAM and CPU type.

Edit: Corrected DebugLog to DebugLogFile in instructions above.

Can anyone else in Windows confirm this behaviour? I cannot reproduce this crash in XP, I checked the users log file and it gave no useful information regarding the crash. I want to see if perhaps this could be related to a bad video driver or if other people encounter this too maybe not.

No problems here, though mine is always windows. I heard some graphics cards react badly to minimizing full screen though. My last laptop computer would crash if the lid was closed during a fullscreen game, but was fine for windowed games.
